Oh yes, it's ladies night . . .

. . . and the feeling's right - oh what a night!! Can you hear it? Gotta love some Kool and the Gang!!

So, several months ago a few of my friends and I had talked about getting together on a regular basis (like once a month) for "girls night". Our first little gathering consisted of only three, but the next month there were six, the following month brought a slightly different group of six, and last night, we had reached a total of nine foxy ladies! I think we are on a roll now and have officially created the monthly ritual of "Ladies Night".

Here's a run down of what we got ourselves into last night . . . First, we had a wonderful (did I say wonderful? I meant fabulous!) dinner at The Pit in downtown Raleigh. If you have not been there, you are missing out!! I highly recommend it (the fried okra was awesome) and they have some great beer on tap as well. Then we moseyed across the street to Jibarra where we enjoyed an array of fancy beverages - most of them containing tequila!

Then the real fun began! We were standing on the street trying to decide where to go next, when this lady walks by and says, "Hey are you guys looking for the Intel party?" Oddly, we all responded, "Yes!!!" So she proceeds to tell us that it's just around the corner and apologized for the fact that the "directions were confusing". So, here we go -- our first experience crashing a company party. It was in a club - with a DJ, along with free drinks. Can you say serendipitous?? At first we felt a little weird - like somebody was going to notice we were not supposed to be there, but eventually we just partied down. I kept waiting for Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson to show . . . Can't wait til next month, ladies!!
